Woman shot dead on her way home from church

A 22-year-old woman lost her life in a gunshot incident while returning home from the 31st December watch night service in Kenyase-Abrem, located in the Ashanti Region, Ghana.

“The victim sustained a gunshot wound to the head during the journey, and the residue from the gunfire also affected her child,” according to reports.

The victim was swiftly taken to the Okomfo Anokye Teaching Hospital, but sadly, she was pronounced dead upon arrival.

“We heard that the person responsible for this is a priest, and this is not the first time he has shot someone. Ours is the third of its kind,” according to the victim’s uncle.

The devastated family members are now pleading with authorities for justice in the wake of this tragic incident.
